Behind the Science
As part of the largest pet care company in the world, we are able to draw on research from some of the most extensive databases of canine behavior, health and nutritional information to develop our tests. This includes a genetic database of more than 15,000 purebred dogs, encompassing multiple continents and hundreds of breeds. In addition we hold the only commercial license in the United States from Washington State University for the use of the potentially lifesaving MDR1 multi-drug sensitivity test. Panel testing for genetic disease has allowed us to provide insight into presence and significance of genetic disease, making new discoveries in partnership with breeder communities for the benefit of pets worldwide.
